Is Earth-2 Robin, the Robin from the golden age? If so, what comic books/tpbs do I need to read to follow him?

Question

I'm a newbie to the whole multiverse thing so please correct anything I said that's wrong. Anyways, I'm a fan of the golden age Robin but apparently his adventures 'never counted' after the crisis or whatever (never read it). Either way, could anyone tell me some paperbacks or comic series I should be reading so I can follow the 40's Robin's adventures into adulthood?

Answer 1

I think Earth-2 Robin was eliminated during the crisis. On Earth-1 the original Robin became Nightwing and is now guardian of a city near Gotham named Bludhaven. Bruce Wayne then took in another orphan and made him his ward. He was Jason Todd. The Joker killed him quite a few years ago. The next one to follow as Robin is Tim Drake and he is the current one last I read. Robin finally wears long pants now instead of that odd looking underwear.
